About

Perched above the dazzling gaming floor of the Hippodrome Casino, Heliot Steak House is a West End institution that delivers prime cuts, bold flavours, and an atmosphere as electrifying as its surroundings. Voted the best steakhouse in London and a triple winner of Best Casino Restaurant at the British Casino Awards, it’s no surprise that Heliot has become a favourite among both serious steak lovers and those looking for a memorable dining experience in the heart of Leicester Square.

At Heliot, steak is taken seriously. The menu revolves around USDA prime steaks, chosen for their incredible marbling, tenderness, and deep flavour. Aged to perfection, each cut is served with a selection of toppings and sauces, allowing guests to personalise their meal to their liking. The steak selection ranges from the Irish Wexford Tomahawk, an impressive, full-flavoured showstopper, to the Australian T-bone, a classic cut that balances tenderness with rich, meaty depth. For those who prefer a little surf with their turf, the Hereford fillet with grilled prawns and Café de Paris butter is a must-try.

Beyond steak, Executive Chef Ioannis Grammenos ensures that the menu remains exciting and seasonal, with fresh ingredients and inspired specials. Starters like grilled octopus with fava beans and Greek olive oil or Grandma’s meatballs with tomato sauce, marjoram, and feta showcase the kitchen’s commitment to bold, vibrant flavours. Mains like free-range Lumina lamb fillet with baby roast potatoes and red wine sauce highlight the restaurant’s dedication to top-quality produce and expertly crafted dishes.

No meal is complete without dessert, and Heliot’s sweet offerings are every bit as indulgent as the rest of the menu. The raspberry chocolate mousse, served with raspberry ice cream, lime, and delicate rose petals, provides a perfectly decadent finish to the evening.

For those seeking a dining experience that’s as thrilling as its setting, Heliot Steak House is unbeatable. Overlooking the buzzing casino floor, it combines exceptional food, striking views, and a lively atmosphere to create a truly one-of-a-kind West End dining destination. Exclusively for over 18s, it’s a place where great food, high stakes, and unforgettable nights come together.

Great Meal!

Hidden gem of a steakhouse!  We had a lovely dinner last night.  Pleasantly suprised when the mirrors on the walls turned in to TV's showing the England match! The husbands were happy!  DELICIOUS steak at cheap prices.

Would NOT recommend

I'm shocked to be reading the other reviews for Heliot's. The food here is extremely overpriced for the quality of what you get! Don't be surprised if your steak doesn't come out as requested as well - one of our steaks was due to be medium rare, instead it was practically blue. The side salad looks like something you could get out of a packet.
I also feel you're paying for an experience when you are spending good money on a steak dinner. Instead what you get is drunk, shouting, screaming revellers from Magic Mike passing by your table!
Watch out men if you need to use the toilet, you'll most like be greeted with a group of women taking it upon themselves to use the men's toilets as there's queue for the women.
Honestly shocked and appalled at the low standard of somewhere so overpriced.

Hidden gem in the middle of the craziness of Leicester Square. Steaks are amazing and drinks are too!

Heliot does brunch, the American way...
For this event, we have gathered to sample Heliot's new American brunch menu. On to the food... country fried steak £7.00 – this was something completely new to me. It is essentially breaded fried steak. There were many who were unsure of this dish but I did like it because it was well cooked, fried properly with the crunch and not too oily. The steak was so well done that it could be any red meat, hence many felt like it was a waste of a good cut. It was not tough but just nice. I didn't like the sausage gravy though. chilli fried egg, and bacon bioche roll £7.00 – the favourite of the group. It was simple but appealing. Even the burnt brioche bun was forgivable. eggs benedict £7.00 – a very rich hollandaise sauce, generous amount of smoked salmon but the muffin was a little soggy. side of sausages, bacon and hash browns – the sausages and hash browns were surprisingly good but the bacon was not great. It was meant to be a side dish, but I'd much rather just have this with toast and butter. pancake stack £7.00 – we purposefully left this dish towards the end because firstly it was a sweet dish so it felt more appropriate to end it like a dessert brunch. Secondly, it was my diner's favourite brunch dish and she wanted to save it till the last and end it with a sweet note. But by then it was cold (that was probably our fault for leaving it till the end) and a very soggy bread. It was not as enticing as it looks and was quite a carb loaded dish with sugar. While I felt it was ok, my diner did not approve at all. We enjoyed the event but being in a group of 60, food came out a little slow. I am not sure that Heliot Steak House is going to be my choice of a brunch venue, although very strategically located by Leicester Square tube station. I tend to associate brunch with having more natural daylight, being in tune with the weather and a view of people strolling up and down the high street. I've heard some superb reviews – from discerning fellow foodies - about their steaks at Heliot Steak House, and hopefully I will be back soon to try them.

Melt in the mouth steak
Beef carpachio was excellent. Struggled to finish the small fillet steak. Mustard mash wonderful. Service was good. Later in evening saw the Boom & Bang show which was highly entertaining. Glad I was in the Circle and not in the stalls.
